Our storyOwned here.
Owned here.
Run here.
Becky and Pete opened Trimwise in 2004. More than twenty years on, they're still here every day — one writing and teaching the timetable, one running the floor.
Why it feels different
A community first. A gym second.
Members who've trained side by side for years. Newcomers who were nervous on day one and now say hello to everyone. Owners on the floor who know what your PB took. It's a place people belong to — and there's always room for one more.
We understand joining a gym is just the start — and the journey has ups and downs. We're passionate about helping you change your lifestyle, and just as committed to helping you stick with it.

It’s about more than fitness.
For Men’s Health Week, John sat down with us to talk honestly about his mental health, and what having somewhere to go, and people who notice, has meant to him.
My experience at Trimwise has changed me 100%… it's given me routine and stability. Now it's a lifestyle for me and I won't break it for anything.
I can actually look at myself and feel proud. I still have goals I want to hit, but now I feel 100x more confident I will hit them.
I love LOVE this place — everyone feels like family to me, members and staff.
It's my second home.
To be a fitter, stronger and better version of me.
